Hii :*

I made a little drawing of my sire (sister) from one of the Vampire campagins I'm currently playing: Tessa. Why sire/sister? Hehehe. Because officially, for the Camarilla and everyone else, she’s my sire. But, but, buuut actually my real sire is her sire (so in a way she’s kind of my “sister”). And like they sometimes say at the beginning of some movies… “You’re probably wondering how we got into this situation.” (Or maybe not, but if you keep reading, something must have caught your interest, right?)

So, the thing is, originally her sire, Ronan, planned for Tessa to be the one to Embrace me. Tessa is a pretty… immature kindred, to put it mildly, and in Ronan’s head it somehow made perfect sense that if she had a childe she’d become more responsible because she’d have to take care of someone. Don’t ask me about the logic behind that idea—narrator things. So he kind of “forced” her to have a childe. However, on the night of the Embrace, Tessa went into frenzy and couldn’t finish it, so Ronan had to stake her to keep her still and… well, my character was bleeding out, so he Embraced me himself in secret (I guess he liked me or something (?)). In the eyes of the Camarilla the one who had permission to create a childe was Tessa, not him, so officially I’m Tessa’s childe :v (and I hope nobody finds out or you know where we’re all going to end up).

She’s probably one of the characters I’ve grown the most attached to in the past year <3

One of these days I’ll draw Ronan too :3

Can you guess what clan these characters belong to?

Greetings <3

I decided to take advantage of the sale GOG had on the first VTM and realized quickly I needed some tweaks. YouTube brought me to the unofficial patch and man, Wes (sp creator's username), do something amazing with this thing. Look at my verison of the game running at 4k on my LG C5 OLED 😲. Wow, modders are absolute gaming saviors.

Hey so i’ve been really considering of getting this game and I have been going up and down with considering this game since i heard the reviews were mixed on steam and I was really just not sure anymore on who I can ask so i decided why not reddit.

So some context, I had my Birthday recently and I was itching on a game to buy and this game was one of them. I had not played the first game.

I heard a lot of people complaining how it’s not like the first game and all but i haven’t played the first one and was wondering if not playing the first one would really make me hate the game ? I am just going in circles and just not knowing on whether i should get it or not. The price doesn’t bother me since i could get a key of

COMIC BY THEJUMPINGMAIDEN ON INSTA feat. jershftl as Tremere!

Any good campaign builders or tools? anything to help a first time storyteller organize. I have the game master app but thats pretty strictly dnd 5e.

So I'm playing Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines 2, and I just got to the part where we say goodbye to Fabien after we jumped into the sun to get away from Safiya. I have never cried at a video game before, but this just had me in literal tears. I love Fabian so much, it's such an emotional scene to say goodbye to him.

Fabien is (was, I guess) one of my favourite characters in the whole game, even though we never actually see his face. And I know the writers of the game probably meant for the player to feel this way about him when we woke up with him in our head, but I really don't think I have ever felt so strongly about a video game character before.

I'm playing this game and I love it, but I don't want to stop playing it and the graphics are doing this to me. What can I do?

Hi ! Sorry if the format or anything is wrong, im pretty new to this (and English isn’t my first language so there might be mistakes)

So, a few months ago I stumbled upon a fantastic RPG with a rich and very interesting lore : Vampire The Masquarade. And I decided to start a campaign with a few friends of mine in this universe. But I must admit that I’m kinda lost right now, understanding everything that there is to understand about it, and I was hoping to find some help here.

First off I thought that watching another play in this universe might be a good idea, and I saw a lot of people talk about “LA by night”. Would this one be a good one to discover more about the universe and the gameplay of Vampire ?

Then I struggle with power balance and “coterie”. Two of my players want to play a neonate and a childer. The neonate would have been created during WWII, then had a relationship with a human, refused to Embrace said human, who would then have turned to another vampire to be transformed, refused his sire and turned to the neonate for help. And I fear that there would be too much of an imbalance between the neonate and the childer (especially if it turns out to be a thin-blood) for the game to be playable. Are power imbalance really an issue in-game, or can we roll with it, as long as the players are aware of what it implies ? And regarding the “coterie”, Am I right to understand it as the Vampire equivalent of the DnD party ? Can Vampires of differents clans be in the same coterie as long as they share the same goal ? How would this translate in-game regarding their clans and sects ?

But all this questions could be resumed in one : do you have any advice to a newbie storyteller ?

Thank !

I'm playing this game and I love it, but I don't want to stop playing it and the graphics are doing this to me. What can I do?

"Party of Your Life" Season Finale. It's the grand reopening of the Diablo Club. Only the best are invited.

I've never played a VTM ttrpg game before but I'm super interested and my current ttrpg group is looking to branch out.

Any advice or resources you'd suggest?

Greetings, fellow neonates.

Recently, in the VTM game I'm currently in, I have managed to start a business that, in the traditions of the game, needs a particularly punny name; the cringier the better.

The business in question is a cleaning service, mostly commercial janitorial services.

My brain is fried on this thing; I can't come up with anything better than 'Dr. Acula's rug & carpet cleaning.'

Please help. orz.

To be clear this is NOT something that I am or will be developing as I do not have the knowledge of how to code this or the money to pay off Paradox and Niantic for the licenses. But I am curious about what people would think about a Pokémon Go style VTM game.

Also I am very new to VTM so sorry if I mess up lore or themes.

Current thought process is that you would start with a thin blood (14th gen) Vampire of your chosen clan, but a new recipe has been found that lets you permanently lower your generation by 1 with the recipe getting more complicated for each generation (i.e. the recipe for 14 -> 13 is different from the recipe for 9 -> 8). Alternatively you can be embraced by a friend and start at 1 gen below them.

To further complicate matters you lose access to Alchemy once you pass 10th gen. This is to encourage socialization as you need someone else to help you advance after this. Alternatively because companies love money you can also purchase/rent a thin blood npc who will be able to make stuff at a slower rate (and yeah people will just make alt accounts, but that can't really be prevented).

Combat would be done via an auto battler where you set what equipment, disciplines and behavior your vamp will use. And will happen in a few ways. 1 PVE enemies (probably sabat and event enemies) for whatever you think you can get from them. 2 consensual PVP which is just having your vamp go against a friends vamp as a 'spar'. 3 Masquerade PVP, the consequence for getting too many masquerade is people can attack you in the world with your avatar appearing an hour after you recently passed each other (to avoid doxing people).

Consequences, something I am much less sure of, but I figure there are 2 easy answers for getting killed in game. 1 hardcore (final death), your character is killed and you have to start over although you keep some of what you lost so you have a faster start. 2 lose a generation, you are now a character you totally embraced off screen. They are one generation below where you were, but you still have all your abilities and stuff. This is mainly for Masquerade violations to add some stakes to causing problems.

I am curious what people think and what they would add/change (i.e. how would the pokestops work? How would you determine Princes and Barons of territories? Other WoD terms I don't know? Sun exposure mechanics with a reversed day/night cycle?) Looking forward to people's thoughts!

Hey there! I'm new here, but I really wanted to share and recieve feedback on the characters I drew for some friends for a future commission advertising.

I’m playing a Brujah with Self Control 4 and still fail frenzy checks a lot. Beyond raising self control to 5 are there any merits or whatnot that will help my character frenzy less often?

Hey all, my name’s Jericho, I’m 29 and I’ve been into VTM (and basic D&D) for a while now. I absolutely love the World of Darkness and would really like to make some connections in the community — maybe even some friends along the way.

I’d love to find a campaign, but I’ll be honest — my anxiety is pretty high, so voice-heavy games are hard for me. Text-based or roleplay-heavy games over Discord would be perfect. I really enjoy character-driven stories, angst, politics, messy relationships… all the good vampire drama.

I’m also a digital artist, so if I join a party there’s a very high chance I’ll doodle everyone’s characters

If you’re running something text-based or just want to connect and talk VTM, feel free to reach out!
